Question

You have a bowl with 5 orange, 6 blue, 3 green, 4 red and 7 yellow candies. What is the probability that you will choose an orange candy out of the bowl? A 50% B 60% C 20% D 25%

Answer 1

20%

Explanation:

The total number of candies in the bowl is 25. There are 5 orange candies. In order to find the total amount, simply divide the amount of candies in the given color (orange) and divide it by the total number of candies (25) giving you a result of 0.20, which can also be written as 20/100 or 20%
